Ryan’s approachable manner made the lesson quite enjoyable, especially with his friendly, personable style. The focus on improving ball placement and serves showed he really knows how to target specific areas for growth, and I think I’ll benefit from practicing those points further. Still, I appreciated the clear instruction and the relaxed vibe, which made learning quite accessible. If you’re looking for a coach who combines patience with genuine teaching skill, Ryan might be worth checking out.

I think Ryan's lesson was quite good, honestly. The focus on improving overall definitely showed through, and I left feeling like I had made some real progress. Though I wouldn't say it was overly flashy, the way he broke things down made the game feel a bit more natural for me. Still, I’d be interested to do more of the same to really lock in the skills. If you’re aiming for steady improvement without the hype, Ryan’s a solid choice.

Oh, interestingly, I really enjoyed playing with others and learning during play, though I think focusing more on putting spin on the ball and stronger serves could make future lessons even more helpful. Ryan’s calm coaching style made me feel comfortable throughout, and I appreciated the practical tips he shared. Still, I’m looking forward to building on this and hopefully improving some specific shot techniques next time.

Playing with a fun group of people while learning the game definitely made this lesson stand out. Ryan’s calm coaching style really helped me feel comfortable, and I appreciated the focus on practical play. Though I’d like to see more of the same, I think a bit more emphasis on specific shot techniques could be helpful next time. Still, it was quite useful, and I’d consider trying another lesson with him.

My first lesson with Ryan was very instructive. We started with some initial practice and move quickly into doubles play. Throughout our matches, Ryan coached me on rules, technique and strategy. His approach to coaching made my first session both fun and instructive.
